New Year's Resolutions

Happy New Year everyone! Here's to another year past and a fresh new beginning. How was your '08? What do you hope for '09? Here are some of my resolutions and goals for the new year:

Blog....

1. Blog at least once a week.

2. Create a recurring feature (maybe weekly, maybe monthly)

3. Be more interesting.

4. Do a giveaway.

Business....

1. Do a craft show.

2. Create 2 new bag designs.

3. Create 2 new little girls' dress patterns.

4. Advertise.

Personal...

1. Be a better mom.

2. Lose some weight.

3. Try at least 5 things I've never tried.

4. Cut back on my pop consumption.

2008 went out very quietly. We spent the evening with my family...eating, laughing, playing games. We were home early and I don't think any of us saw the new year in this year....maybe next year. (How boring are we....) It is said that how you spend the first day of the year sets the tone for the rest of the year...what are you doing? I worked and we are cleaning and putting away Christmas. I am blogging right now so hopefully I will be better with that in the new year.

Below are the last few projects I completed last year. I FINALLY made myself and after-diaper bag tote bag (you know, once you no longer need a diaper bag, but carry enough that the purse just doesn't cut it). I also made a gift set for a friend to give as a shower gift.
